Opportunities

Are you studying or considering studying?

We have scholarships and opportunities for you, to support you in your educational journey, whatever level you are at. 

Te Mana o Rangitāhua is a five-year MBIE endeavour-funded research programme led by Ngāti Kuri in partnership with Auckland Museum. Through the research, we will transform environmental well-being practices of reconnecting, reidentifying and restorying within subtropical island ecosystem that is a bellwether for climate change. 

Rangitāhua (Kermadec Islands) is located halfway between Mainland Aotearoa and Taonga and contains marine and terrestrial biodiversity found nowhere else in the world, including internationally significant terrestrial nature reserves and Aotearoa’s largest marine reserve. It has been identified as one of only four pristine marine ecosystems on Earth.
